To English 110-ers
As we almost figured out yesterday, our final meeting next week will take place at the Angelika Film Center at 18 West Houston Street in Manhattan, at the 7:45 pm showing of Taymor’s Tempest. Tickets are available online if you want to get them that way. $13 for adults plus whatever fees the web shakes out of you.
The best subway stop is probably the F at Broadway-Lafayette, if you’re coming from STJ.
Since our class officially starts at 6:55, that gives us time for a pre-film chat over coffee. Two possible suggestions —
Aroma Espresso Bar at 145 Greene St
Please indicate preferences, and negotiate carpools and other logistics, in comments. I’ll be driving over from campus in the afternoon, but then I’ll head straight north to CT after the show, so I’m perhaps not an ideal ride.

Hi everyone! I mentioned to Steve yesterday at the Eng Dept party that I definitely cannot make coffee ahead of time. I work at the Writing Center until 6:45 pm on Tuesdays. But I just did a little time check of my schedule with Hopstop — and between driving home and walking to the subway in Kew Gardens, there’s no way I can make it to the theater before 8:30 pm. I’m loath to leave the WC early because we’re so booked with it being finals time.
I am, however, planning a trip to take my cast of the Bookend Project to see this — I’ll email details around if anyone would like to join us when we do that. You would be welcome!
I’m so sorry I won’t be able to make it! I just have a feeling that I will be buried by needy students all day on Tuesday, and you guys are just less needy. 😉
Steve Mentz says
I’ll look forward to hearing your complaints via bloggage, then, rather than live. Please let me know what address you’d like the final paper mailed back to when you send it to me Tuesday.
Tara Bradway says
Ha! Yes, I promise to post a lively response on my blog, and I’ll definitely include my mailing address with the paper.
Did you see Taymor’s interview on The Colbert Report?

Aroma Espresso Bar sounds good!.. I will be taking a train from Kew Gardens/Union Tpke, so if anyone wants to join the trip will be more fun. Let me know.
